Ray Dalio recently published an essay called “The World Has Gone Mad and the System is Broken”. When looking at the current state of the global economy he said:
“This set of circumstances is unsustainable and certainly can no longer be pushed as it has been pushed since 2008. That is why I believe the world is approaching a big paradigm shift.”
Besides being a huge fan of Ray’s, we think his essay does a great job of explaining the major forces at play in the global economy and we found it fascinating so I wanted to discuss and share with everyone.
Here are the four reasons Ray believes “The World has Gone Mad and the System is Broken”

Accordingly to the Fidelity Millionaire Outlook Survey, 86% of millionaires are self-made. Even more remarkable, 78% of them started out as middle class or poor. Only 22% grew up in the upper class. That means that the vast majority of millionaires built their wealth the old fashioned way: hard work, consistent saving and investing in the long-term.
We’ll explain why rich people are cheap and how you can adopt their simple habits to become a millionaire yourself.

How We're Investing Our Money This Year

Mr Money Mustache didn't retire because he was making so much money from his blog. He had actually been retired for six years before he started writing. The blog was born when he looked around at his friends who had good jobs but were still living paycheck to paycheck.
They bought into what has long been sold as the American Dream; go to college, get a job, buy a house, fill that house with as much stuff as it can hold (and when it can't hold anymore, rent a storage unit), have some kids, and get stuck in an unfulfilling job, dreaming of freedom that will always be out of reach.
Retire, maybe at 65 if you're lucky, and live out your days, just kind of existing, hoping your money will outlast you. The best years of your life long past. But what if you could be retired by thirty?
MMM started the blog out of frustration, he wanted to show them, and now us, that they could do what he did. And an empire started.

Go Fire Yourself With Laurel Staples (Rebroadcast)

What a weird concept. Loving your kids too much. But it can be true. By giving them too much, by coddling them from every possible disappointment, we turn them into ineffectual adults.
From ensuring that everyone gets a trophy to always giving them money when they ask, kids today can't handle normal disappointment and have never had to work or struggle for anything. Mom and Dad are always waiting, poised to smooth whatever path their children are on. But in the name of loving them, we're taking away character building opportunities.
